by Chad Lakkis on February 29, 2008
Voice actor John DiMaggio, the raspy voice of Gears of War lead man, Marcus Fenix, was recently interviewed by IGN. During the course of the interview, DiMaggio revealed that Gears of War 2 will feature Brumak, who first debuted as a villain in the PC version of the original Gears of War.
He goes on to reveal that Dom’s good buddy, Franklin, will be returning as well, and then lets the following tidbits roll off his tongue:
Oh man, dude - there’s new weapons, new beasts, there’s a couple of new characters, and it’s just badass.
When asked about the sequels overarching plot, DiMaggio states:
“The storylines are really cool and the relationships of the guys in the game - the sequences that explain things that are going on - they’re a lot deeper.”
Note to self: We really need to start interviewing more videogame voice talent.

I heard a rumour on the interweb that said in Gears 2 you wont be playing as Marcus, or with his squad, instead, You will be introduced to a new squad that lines will cross Marcus’. I guess it’s not true.
